Henry Catchpole drove the NEW Porsche 911 Sport Classic for Carfection for a road review. 00:00 Epic Intro 00:28 What is the Porsche 911 Sport Classic? 01:03 the price 01:30 Why should you buy the Sport Classic? + Epic roads 03:12 Interior 03:52 Engine and drivetrain 04:26 Key Stats 05:00 Is this as good as a GT2? 05:20 Driving impressions 07:35 The Story of the Ducktail 09:10 Final verdict 10:55 Thanks For Watching The Sport Classic is the most expensive new Porsche 911 you can currently buy, but is it worth its top billing? We went on a bit of a road trip to a spectacular Austrian mountain road to find out. A big part of the SC’s appeal definitely lies in its looks and for some the duck tail spoiler, Fuchs-style wheels and heritage interior will be enough to justify the price tag on their own. It certainly garnered attention everywhere we parked and although I would delete (at no cost) the graphics, it really does stand out in a relatively subtle way. If you think it needs a little more mechanical substance to make it seem worthwhile, then you’ll be delighted to hear that it has a unique drivetrain. Unlike the 997 Sport Classic that was really just a styling exercise this SC has had a much more thorough transformation, with the 3.7-litre engine lifted from the 911 Turbo. However, it gets more interesting because instead of delivering power to all four wheels as it does in the Turbo, in the SC the flat-six simply sends it to the rear. Its figures are 542bhp and 442lb ft of torque which are slightly down on the Turbo however this is because the Sport Classic also sets itself apart with a manual gearbox. This might sound like a recipe for a bit of a wild child but in fact the opposite felt true on the road. This was an excellent companion for cruising on a long road trip, particularly with an interior that felt a distinctly more luxurious proposition than any other 992 I’ve been in. The down side is that it perhaps didn’t offer quite as many thrills as I would have liked on the really good bits of road at the end of our journey - a manual GTS would have been better for that. I’m sure what will ultimately ensure that the large price tag is justified is the fact it’s only going to be produced in limited numbers, with just 1250 due to be built. Admittedly that’s five times the number of 997 SCs produced, but even so, with a level of exclusivity guaranteed, the latest Sport Classic is almost certain to be a future classic.
